PGA pro will represent Tuscawilla

Winter Springs, Fla. – Professional golfer Patrick Sheehan will represent Tuscawilla Country Club as its PGA touring professional.

“Tuscawilla and Patrick Sheehan are a perfect fit,” says general manager Mike Gardner. “He is very personable, which is quite reflective of the membership at Tuscawilla. Already, he and his family are enjoying all the amenities that come with being a part of a true family club environment.”

Sheehan has been the epitome of perseverance in golf, toiling along on the various mini-tours throughout the 1990s before finally landing his PGA Tour card in 2003. Sheehan had a breakout year in 2004, carding three Top-10 finishes and earning over $1 million for the first time. In 2005, Sheehan wowed the hometown crowd at Orlando’s Bay Hill Invitational with a final round 5-under 67 that catapulted him 35 spots up the leaderboard to finish in a tie for fifth place.

Tuscawilla Country Club is enjoying a renaissance with a significant golf course renovation transforming the 30-year old club. The club now offers a championship golf course that boasts all new greens and eight new tee boxes that lengthen the course from 6,647 yards to 6,850 yards.

“Our recent renovations on the Joe Lee-designed golf course have restored it to championship standards, so we are thrilled that a golfer successfully competing at the game’s highest level would choose to call Tuscawilla home,” says Tuscawilla’s head golf professional Carolyn McKenzie Andrews.
